Hello all you people on the cold side of the planed! Sorry we took so long with thes next blot, we just have been so busy! Well then, what have we been up to... Since our last blog entry we did our last bit of our favorite job ever (painting)... okay maybe it not our favorite but it feels pretty good to have done so much. For the past couple of days or so we have been building picnic tables. They are pretty nice and sturdy tables, but they are so heavy! Atleast no one will be able to just carry one off to easy. After work on a couple of days we went down to the river. It is the best swimming experience I have every had. The water was so clean, clear and deep! We could jump off at one point of the bank, its about a six foot drop, so ya its a pretty good time! And if you would swim down a bit more the water would get kinda calm so you could just swim around in it without really having to worry about the current taking us away. We also started work on a house here, the guyes there work really hard, but there joking around with each other the whole time. We helped pour the foundation of the house yesterday, and today we helped put up the walls. It is so hot here, we are drinking lots of water and finding shade as much as we can. Life is good here and I think I can speak for the whole group in saying we will be sad to leave but we are also pretty exited for home. Oh by the way the sun got to all of us and we are looking pretty pink as of late, so ya I have had enough sun for a bit. Thanks for your prayers!
